This page covers biological details of component Globus Pallidus Internal Lateral. Region is part of aHuman target integrated biological model.

• Top-down path to region: Forebrain Telencephalon -> Basal Ganglia (BGA.FT.BG) -> Globus Pallidus (BGA.FT.GP) -> Dorsal Pallidum (BGA.FT.DP) -> Globus Pallidus Internal (BGA.FT.GPI) -> Globus Pallidus Internal Lateral (FEC.FT.GPI.LT) (see Mind Maps)
• Type: nucleus
• Brain area: Forebrain - Execution Control Area
• Role: relay
• Function: Motor flexor loop
• Notes to function: output nuclei of basal ganglia to neocortex, leg, arm, face; lateral - leg, medial - arm, ventral - face
